Focused Electrical Engineer with background in PCB design. Willingness to take on added responsibilities and work overtime to meet team goals. Willing to put in as much work as needed to get any job done regardless of the difficulty of task or time restrictions. Ability to adapt to any situation and learn anything new, thrives in a challenging and pressured environment.

1. Worked on JagSat-1, which was a 2U CubeSat that was built by the University of South Alabama. The goal of the mission was to measure the electron density in the ionosphere. I started working on the project on March of 2020. The project was funded by NASA and was launched successfully on SpaceX CRS-25. Listed below are some of the areas that I got to work on:

• Time Domain Impedance Probe: This was main reason behind the mission. It was a mixed domain board. I redesigned the analog section of the circuit board. This included debugging the hardware first, and redesigning both the schematics and the PCB layout using DipTrace.
• I redesigned the buck converter on the EPS board, which was the power supply board for the satellite.
• I helped with the assembly of the solar cells.
• I was responsible for prepping the circuit boards before integration into the satelite. Cleaning the boards using an ultrasonic cleaner, baking the boards to remove moisture, and applying conformal coating.
• I helped with harnessing and soldering many different SMD components with different packages and sizes on all of the flight boards.

2. Wireless power transfer project. I assisted a professor with their research on wireless power transfer. I built a power amplifier that is capable of delivering 1.8KW to the load. I also built varies other circuits for the projects. The project won WPTCE best project award.
